It would be helpful to know your system specs.

Do you have power switch turned "ON" on the back of the PSU?

Check that the 24

24 pin connection is plugged in properly. People have been overlooking this issue on some other Asus boards.

That yellow is normal, I have the same LEDs on my Asus Prime Z370-P.

Have you put your front-panel connectors in? If all else fails, you can try short the front-panel connectors using a screwdriver to ensure the PC actually boots.

Hmm the yellow light means its on standby. Meaning that it detects power but there is no delivery. Do your fans spin up / rgb things light up when you try to boot

OK I made a mistake, the yellow light means you've got a dram problem. Have you tried booting with only one stick of ram. You could also try doing a hard cmos reset. And the worst case scenario is that your bios is corrupted and you will need to do an update

What is a cmos reset?
